Evelina and the Time Pirates is free today.
Enjoy!
Love, Rachel

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!!!
I for one am glad it's here.  Last year was a hard row to hoe.  Onward and upward I say!

I was hoping to have the second Evelina finished by now, but it's not quite there yet.  I'm working on it though.

The longer I write, the more I realize a story has a life of its own.  It grows and spins and turns at its own pace.  I'm just the messenger.

Here's hoping we all have a prosperous year, filled with health, happiness, and love.

'Keep on keepin' on!'

Hugs, Rachel   

Tweets

I'm tweeting now.  Who knew?
And for some reason I can't get that 'rockin' robin' song out of my head.

But, despite this affliction, it's a great way to connect with my readers and fellow writers.
Check it out. Join me on twitter.

New Page

I created a fan page on Facebook.  I don't know if I'll ever need it. 
But I thought, build it and they will come.  LOL The eternal optimist.  I guess that's why I'm a writer.

I was thinking the other day, I wonder if Mom still has that little blue smith corona I asked for for christmas in grade four. After watching the Waltons, I thought, wow, I'm just like John Boy Walton.  I'm a writer.  That's who I am. I used to type in the bath tub with a board across the tub to hide from my brother and sisters.

What a weird kid.  But I knew who I was. 

Follow your star. You'll get where you need to be.

Spring Fever

It's spring.  Can you feel it?  There's So much to do my head is in a spin. Some days it's hard to concentrate.

So today I'm writing a love scene, set in France and I'm pretty much brain dead. I got nothin'. A knock comes to the door,( unusual since we live on an old victorian farm in the boonies). I open the door to find a black haired swarthy guy, who says, 'Hello I'm Raoul. I come from the French Riviera. I have some delicious seafood in the back of my truck. I stared at him thinking, are you kidding? LOL  

God works in mysterious ways. Now the characters are just driving up the lane and knocking on the door.
